Tonawonda welcomes you to a city that has become a shining example of intelligent
urban planning, and which recently won its bid for a world-class event. This year the
International Trade and Industry Exposition, an event that occurs once every five
years, is coming to Tonawonda. This event was originally held in Helsinki 20 years
ago, and has been held in Geneva, Lima and London since then. This is
Tonawonda's chance to show its stuff and join a proud group of organizers in
promoting this global event.
Many of Tonawonda's residents were pleasantly surprised to learn that they had
won the right to host the exposition. The bold plans presented for the event site gave
Tonawonda the edge over bigger cities with seemingly stronger bids. The city's Park
of Technology, situated in the city's industrial zone - a once dilapidated area with
rundown factories and an old mine - will be home to the International Trade and
Industry Exposition. This six-square mile area has been rebuilt over a span of two
and a half years, and during this time a modern complex of well-designed buildings
with amphitheater-like exhibition halls was built. In the future, this complex will be
used to serve as a major commercial hub for the city and the state.

Questions 186-190 refer to the following news article and review.

ORGANIC FOOD SHOW

Today in San Antonio, new and improved products were on display a,t the
Whole Foods food show. On display were a range of innovative health and
organic products. The introduction of these products marks a recent trend in
the wholesale food market: "Organic foods are in high demand, so despite
the high price they are still selling quite well," said Wayne Brady, one of the
organizers of the show.
Many of the companies that set up kiosks, such as The Olive Branch and
Gardania, were happy to have the chance to launch their new products.
Creed Organic, a company that specializes in organic teas, demonstrated
their new vitamin B-infused green tea beverage called Green Wave, which
won the prize for show's most novel product. This award was won last year
by Let-Us for its new line of seasonings.
The show was held at the Holly Convention Center, located in the west end of
the city, and drew close to 20,000 people.

Product Review: Creed Organic Teas

Creed Organic has grown significantly over its five years of operations. They are
famous for selling tea, which comes in a wide range of flavors, but more specifically
for their Bad Moon Rising black tea. They have made their mark on the market with
their innovative flavor selection.
I really enjoyed their Green Berry Blast tea, which is a mix of green tea, wild berryand black berry, and is infused with vitamins A and B. They have managed to make
a perfect mix of flavors, creating a very refreshing and satisfying taste. The company
adds to this by including a sample of many of their other tea blends.
Creed has also just released a new canned power drink called P-Bomb, a drink
designed to compete with the recent trend of energy drinks that has swept the
country. This is a new direction for the company, but after trying the drink I think it
was the right move.

Questions 191-195 refer to the following notice and review.

The Indian Star

Shooting of Bear Lake on hold
Premier delayed
The highly anticipated premier of Bear Lake, a film directed by Raj Patal, has
been delayed from early November to late spring. This delay is a result of bad
weather and location selection. As well, many of the animal scenes have been
taking longer to shoot than expected. These factors, combined with a sagging
economy, caused the delay. Representatives for the film, however, have
emphatically stated that filming will reSume soon.

Movie Review: Bear Lake

Mountain Films is proud to announce its anticipated release of Bear Lake this week,
after eight months of delay. The Raj Patal film is an adaptation of the Pulitzer Prizewinning novel of the same name. The novel is an epic love story, based in the foothills of
northern India, with many twists and turns.
The adaptation of a prize-winning novel to the big screen can be very difficult, because
for every reader the characters and the scenery will have been imagined differently. As
well, it can be difficult to select the proper scenes to shoot and ultimately include in the
film. But after watching this film I believe Raj Patal has done it again! I feel this was
achieved because of the collaboration between Samir Ranjeet and Patal, who managed to
bring the book to life beautifully. It is rumored that the pair will be working together
again soon.
Patal has shown many times in the past that he is capable of depicting the lives of
everyday people and the relationships that they have. Bear Lake is a giant step forward
for Patal's career because of the amount of funding and publicity that it has received. He
used this money wisely, producing breathtaking cinematography and moving love
scenes. This movie's success was also greatly enhanced by the performances given by
Deepak Shakur and Latanji Kapur.
The limited release of Bear Lake opens Friday night and will go into wide release at the
end of the month.
